While some individuals effortlessly navigate the intricate world of mathematics, I find myself grappling with its complexities. The abstract nature of mathematical concepts often eludes my grasp, leaving me feeling like a fish out of water in the numerical realm. Equations and theorems become a labyrinth of confusion, and the elusive understanding of mathematical principles remains just out of reach. Despite earnest efforts to decipher the language of numbers, my brain seems to resist the logical structures that define the mathematical landscape. However, acknowledging my struggle with math does not diminish my strengths in other areas. Each individual possesses a unique set of skills, and while mathematical prowess may not be my forte, I thrive in other intellectual and creative domains where my talents shine brightly. My guest today is Cam F Awesome. Yes, that is his legal name. Tune in to hear the full story. Join me as we "Take Flight" into Cam's story.

They discuss how Cam's background in boxing has helped him develop a unique perspective on overcoming adversity, using humour to engage audiences, and the overlap between performing in the ring and at the speaking podium. Cam's story highlights the power of a winning mindset, the importance of mental toughness, and the value of embracing failure as part of the journey to success. Cam's philosophy is based on a simple equation: 1+2=3. He shares how this equation helped him become a National Champion in boxing within two years of taking it up. Cam believes any anyone can use it to achieve their goals.  The key is believing in yourself (1), setting a clear goal (3), and doing the hard work (2) required to achieve it. During the conversation, Cam shares his experiences with failure and how he used it to succeed in his boxing career. He talks about the importance of mental toughness, gratitude, and developing a winning mindset.

Awesome on The Recognized Authority podcast “One plus two equals three. I'm one. Three is the goal. One plus two equals three. What is two in this equation? Two is what I have to do to win. The reason why I call two number two is because it is the way it sounds is the actual shitty part of the job! It's the actual hard work.” -- Cam F. Awesome on The Recognized Authority podcast

BIO: Cam F Awesome is a multi-time National Champion Heavyweight Olympic boxer and former USA National Boxing Team Captain. STORY: Cam invested so much time and effort chasing his dream of going to the Olympics. An avalanche of events stole this dream from him, and now he doesn't stand a chance of ever going to the Olympics. LEARNING: There are ups and downs in investing. Persevere and be willing to pivot.   “Just because the goal looks a little different in reality doesn't mean you should stop chasing it.”Cam F Awesome  Guest profilehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/camfawesome/ (Cam F Awesome) is a multi-time National Champion Heavyweight Olympic boxer and former Captain of the USA National Boxing Team. After retiring as the Winningest Boxer in US history, Cam hung up the gloves and picked up a microphone as a Motivational Speaker, Diversity Consultant, Event MC, and Standup Comic. Worst investment everCam's goal had always been to go to the Olympics. Unfortunately, in 2016 he lost in the finals on a split decision and didn't get to go to Rio for the Olympics. After that, Cam bought a van because he now had to build a career for himself. He started traveling around the country, speaking at schools, and training for the next Olympics. After he'd built a nice business for himself, the US Olympic Committee told him they wouldn't allow him to box now that he had a speaking business. So he had to give up boxing or his speaking business. So Cam flew to Trinidad and Tobago (his dad's home country), got dual citizenship, did one of their Olympic trials, and qualified. But he got suspended. Then in 2020, Cam again won the Olympic trials, and then COVID happened. Then April of this year, he woke up with a detached retina and was told he could never box again. And just like that, his dream of going to the Olympics was dimmed. Lessons learnedThere are ups and downs in investing. And if you can just, if you're willing to ride out the down long enough, you can least come back up to at least break even. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Andrew's takeawaysYou've got to persevere. Be willing to pivot. Set your dreams and your goals. Sometimes, what you set as your goal or dream is not what you're going to get. But what you're going to get along the way is really what life's all about. Actionable adviceIf you have no dependents, take bigger risks. Put all those eggs in the basket. Even if the basket drops, the experience you'd learn will give you more success. Cam's recommended resourcesCam recommends going to the public library for free access to thousands of books. No.1 goal for the next 12 monthsCam's number one goal for the next 12 months is to make motivational humor a more well-known thing.
